Can anyone out there tell me where I can find Poly/cotton fabric suitable for making mens sport shirts. The shirts I can buy are made with beautiful plaids but I can't find the fabrics they use. If I make them out of 100% cotton they wrinkle so bad. I know I probably won't get any answers on this one because I have looked everywhere with no luck, but thanks for reading my question.

Candace has a recent topic "I'm not a hoarder because I'm not keeping it all" (don't know how to do a link to it) that mentions having a quantity of poly/cotton blend fabric. You might PM her and see if any of what she has would be suitable for your purpose.

Thanks amazon, that's a good sight. I found a few that I will show to my DH and see if he likes them.That's the most plaids I have seen anywhere. I appreciate your help.
